LiveWorld Announces ProEdition, offering businesses a rich yet economical social networking solution, just right for today's challenging economic times

New York, San Jose, CA and London, UK-November 13, 2008- Small, medium and large business can now deploy lower cost social network solutions based on LiveWorld's industry leading platform, thanks to a new turnkey edition announced today. LiveWorld, a leading social media marketing agency (OTC Pink Sheets: LVWD.PK www.liveworld.com) announced Community Center 2.0 ProEdition, aimed at providing businesses with an economical but powerful way to bring online community to a brand's website.


"Brands realize that creating a loyal, active online community to engage their customers is critical to marketing in the 21st century, and all the more so in a tough economic climate," said Peter Friedman, LiveWorld's Chairman and CEO. "That's why we've created ProEdition. It lets businesses deploy social networks based on LiveWorld's industry leading platform, but at a lower entry and ongoing price than previously available. We believe it is an ideal solution - a rock-solid social networking platform at budget prices designed for a budget economy."


ProEdition social networks are built on the same underlying LiveWorld platform used by dozens of Fortune 500 brands. It comes with a wide range of features and backstage administration tools that allow a client to simply and easily configure and style the system on their own. It can typically be deployed in just a few weeks.


It also includes LiveWorld's advanced moderation tools and a range of new and improved features including: advanced blogging, pre-set paste in content integration widgets, free form HTML pages, improved user interface and layouts, AIM presence detection, auto-generated profile promoter, RSS import gateway, community segmentation, community optimized search engine optimization (SEO), robot blocking, and other new capabilities. LiveWorld's API Suite 2.0 is also included, enabling clients to build their own content integration widgets, extended applications or even an entire site on top of the LiveWorld platform.
